What I ment was did you try to flash some rom with it?I ask cause I saw some post here that someone got an error while flashing...that's why I'm sceptical

And that link you posted, it says China unicom..so I'm not sure that it's for our version off F1...

Not sure what you mean?

The device itself doesn't support ANY language.

It's the ROM that determines what languages are supported.

Ohh. And on that website they used some kind of tool on pc to install rom. Can i just do it with my twrp. To install zip

Guys somehow on my EmUi on boot. First its showed that miui logo and then huawey logo. It happend when i tried to install update of miui. How can i remove miui's one and use Emui's one. Tried extracting zip and using boot.img(didnt work) and flashing logo.img in twrp just gave me boot loop.

You need to read the first post in this thread.

Most custom ROMs are zips that can be installed by most or all custom recoveries - e.g. CWM, TWRP etc.

But some ROMs - especially original CoolUI ROms for example - are in another format and need to be installed using a specific tool - e.g. CPB format installable using YGDP (Yulong General Download Platform) or CDA (Coolpad Download Assistant). YGDP is probably the best/easiest to use if installing CPB ROMs. The only issue some people have is getting the right drivers.

Try what??! You can't flash a CPB ROM from CWM/TWRP. End of story!

You really should read the first post as all of this is covered already.

Guys what is coolpad dashen f1?!?!

It's the 8297 F1.

It could refer to either the WCDMA version or the TD-SCDMA version depending on the context.

http://www.miui.com/thread-2408209-1-1.html
And here on chinnese official there is big "STOP" and also author X_x sayd we should download 5.8.16 version.

Do you think its like for both versions compatible?

In the title it says - MIUI 7 For Coolpad F1 **(8297_8297W)**

I don't know what you mean by "brush tool".

As I have already said if a ROM is in zip format then almost certainly it's a custom ROM that can be flashed with a custom recovery - CWM, TWRP etc.

Some custom ROMs recommend a specific recovery and/or version to use.

If it's a CPB (and maybe other?) format then it needs to be flashed using CDA or YGDP.

If you use the wrong tool to flash a ROM then it will not work.

Here what is?!?

Check the instructions for flashing this ROM.

I don't know.

Usually a ROM has to have different radio (baseband?) files for the different standards (WCDMA versus TD-SCDMA) but maybe some ROMs support both?

 

If you don't know what you're doing when flashing ROMs then don't do it or you may end up in trouble,

As I said - custom ROM ZIP file = use CWM, TWRP (or whatever the ROM installation instructions recommend).

CPB (or maybe some other formats) = use CDA or YGDP.

I don't know if "brush tool" when translated from Chinese to English means one of these specifically or any flashing tool in general.

I'm not sure on what that function depends and I don't have earphones like that

Which inew port are you using? Although base is the same for the different versions, there're some differences

Would you mind trying something? Rename your current keyguard.apk or move to other folder, just in case you want it back, and flash this one

Hi, everybody!

This is my first post here, in Modaco.

I do not speak English well so I apologize if I make many mistakes when writing.

I'm a Coolpad F1 owner so I think this is the correct place. Sometimes I visit this website to find out about our device so I decided to register.

 

Greetings to all.
